In the Garden Art Show and the last week of our trip...



I have been so busy making things for my show this weekend: jams, jellies, soaps, toffee, body butters and lippies. It's been hard to get this last part of our trip documented.

Do come to the garden and see the fabulous new Celtic soaps I have been making and sample the amazing new tomato chutney.  This show is always such a fun social event, bring a friend !!


Week three of our road trip...

Day 15: Our first night after Boulder, we camped at Elk Ridge Campground. Not only did it have full amenities like a laundromat and showers, it also had this sweet free library. I enjoyed the book I traded for one I had just finished.


Day 16: Driving through the snow dusted Colorado Rockies the next day was spectacular.
Day 17: Camping on this mesa with amazing views was one of the highlights of our whole trip.
Day 18: We love the crazy sculptures on the road up to Wheeler Peak.
Day 19: Wheeler Peak with a sprinkling of snow, the contrast in just a few weeks was astonishing.
Day 20: I learned to dress up the Trader Joe's noodle boxes into a simple tasty, hot dinner.
Day 21: Great fungus on the hike we took on the Chapman Creek trail in the Sierra Nevada.
What a great three week adventure we had, seems like a long time ago at this point.

After my show I will begin to delve into that greatest of all food holidays: Thanksgiving !!
